Should I selfhost kbin/lemmy for my own account so my data stays in my stance? (kbin.social)

I'd like to be the owner of my own data. I don't know if my data at kbin.social is available for download or something.

If you already have a VPS, or are already hosting services locally in your home, you should spin up and instance for no other reason than to intuit the edge cases for the space. It's super informative.

It's just a little bit of a pain to get set up if you're not already familiar with the bits and bobs needed to do it.
